The Series Sidebar serves as an extension of sorts for the Infobox. It gives a list of all the games in a particular series and points out where the current article resides in that list. Code-wise, it is always located directly beneath the Infobox and above Key points/General information.
The sidebar is made up of two parts:
Syntax
{{Series|Game}}
Example
The tag is the portion that is written to articles. It acts as a proxy for the actual table (located in a dedicated Series: page).
Series:
In most cases, the actual table is already created and only the tag needs to be added. That being said, there will be times where a new series needs to be added in with no prior entry available. See below for details.
{{Seriesbox|entries= {{Seriesbox/parent|My Little Parent Series|}} {{Seriesbox/row|[[The Game]]|2000}} {{Seriesbox/row|[[Game 2: Electric Boogaloo]]|2004}} {{Seriesbox/row|[[Game 3: Not Game 2]]|2014}} {{Seriesbox/child|The Electric Boogaloo Spin-off}} }}
See Series:Game, Series:Halo, Series:Lego, or Series:Lego Batman.
The table is where the actual information is stored. It consists of 2 main parts:
{{Seriesbox|entries= (content goes here) }}
{{Seriesbox/row|[[The Game]]|2000}}
{{Seriesbox/child|Name of the child series}}
{{Seriesbox/parent|Name of the parent series}}
